Apache Servicemix Kernel subproject moves to Apache Felix

So the big news in the Apache Servicemix project, after its recent 4.0 release, is the move of the Kernel subproject over to Apache Felix. This change came about for several reasons which were discussed on Guillaume Nodet's blog. After some discussion on the mail lists, the name "Karaf" was accepted for the subproject. As annouced by Guillaume, the vote to move the subproject was successful and the work to make the move began.

Now that the process has begun to establish Apache Felix Karaf, I thought it would be good to start publishing a few links so that Kernel developers & users could find its new home.
